Affiliate Disclosure
We believe in radical transparency about how we make money. Here it is, straight and clear.

Short version: Some outbound links on VPN Reviews are affiliate links. If you click one and sign up or purchase, we may earn a commission — at no extra cost to you. This never affects what we recommend, and we keep no pay-to-rank lists.
How we're funded
VPN Reviews is reader-supported. We do not sell sponsored posts, accept payments for rankings, or run display advertisements. Our sole source of revenue is affiliate commissions from a small number of VPN and online-safety products that we genuinely believe are worth considering.
Our affiliate tag
We use the Amazon affiliate tag faiza0d2-21 for any Amazon-related links. For VPN affiliate links, we work directly with provider programmes — always clearly marked.
It never affects our advice
We have a strict editorial firewall between affiliate relationships and our content. If a product is mediocre, we say so, even if we have an affiliate link. If we recommend a product, it's because we believe it meets our criteria — never because of a commission. Our editorial principles explain this in detail.
What we recommend
We don't publish "top 10" lists or league tables. Instead, we teach you the criteria that genuinely matter — independent audits, no-logs policy, jurisdiction, encryption standards — so you can evaluate any VPN on its merits. See our How to Choose a VPN guide for the full framework.
